Now, we all know North Korea as basically being the craziest of crazy. It's well deserved, the people in charge of that country are f**king lunatics.

The inherent tragedy involves the people who have to live there. It's basically a nationwide cult. Amidst widespread starvation, they are still subject to a cult of personality. I don't remember who made the documentary, I think it was National Geographic, but the people who live there don't question the basic s**ttiness of having to live in North Korea. They don't have any idea that there's anything better.

Does the rest of the world have to worry about North Korea? Well, a little bit, yes. The problem is that North Korea has militarized their own citizens, so if it came down to out and out war, they've got a lot of people ready to fight. That's why nobody really wants to step in and say something.

On the other hand, they're lunatics. They say they have nuclear capability and are doing test runs. If I had to guess, I'd say it's all bulls**t. Insular culture that is not afraid to starve its own citizens is probably a lot less technologically savvy than they'd like to portray.

I was kind of hoping that the death of Kim Jong-Il would lead to end of the soul-sucking lunacy that is North Korea. But his offspring seem to be fine with things as they are.

The real question is why does China continue to support them? What good does that do to them, or anybody for that matter?
